Do you agree? Is big really beautiful?

When I say big, I mean over weight and obese. We have all heard of the saying "Big is Beautiful" but do you agree with it? A persons size doesnt worry me at all as long as they dress appropriately. I dont judge people by their weight or their looks. The only time that I dont like it is when you see that they are wearing clothes that are too small and body parts are hanging out everywhere.

Yes I definetely agree that if a big person dresses properly they will look beautiful. I don't care if they are big or small, its what's on the inside that counts.

Thats exactly the way I see it too. We have a mother at school that is really big. She has huge boobs but never wears bras and it doesnt look very nice. But on the other hand, she is a really friendly lady and must feel confident about herself.

Maybe she should wear a bra, at least when she goes out.

ha-ha like the hanging out everywhere bit, it can be off putting can't it? I keep my volumptous body well covered and as my body is a temple for my soul to live in and I have an awful lot of soul I have to keep building on extensions, fat rolls, love handles, double chins etc just to fit it all in, lol. I try to wear flattering clothes as a size 16 and only 5'2" I have little chubby legs and can resemble a beach ball if I'm not careful. I do have a denim mini-skirt I wear on holiday as I thing it is easier to wear than shorts - I don't like the way short shorts walk up and I don't like my knees and calves in longer ones. I like being me, if other people don't then they don't have to stare.

If you are beautiful inside you are beautiful out side. I was a 560lb man I did not let people dictate who I was and people responded to it now I way 265lbs. but I am the same jolly person. Be proud of who you are and people will see that.

Honestly, I think any size is beautiful, but what's inside counts the most. So many times have I met a beautiful skinny girl only for her to be a complete witch. If you're not beautiful inside then you'll never truly be beautiful, no matter what size you are.

It's what's on the inside that counts. I don't like someone because of the way they look, it's their personality that I go for. There are some people that I know that they only want someone that is really skinny. I think that is sad because it shouldn't matter what they look like.

Big maybe beautiful, but of course not healthy. I also a lil bit overweight, and now try to get normal back, because being too heavy really hard to breath, to bring our own body.
